Bob Marley - Duppy Conqueror Lyrics






Yes, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again
Yes, me friend, me friend
Me deh 'pon street again

The bars could not hold me
Force could not control me now
They try to keep me down
But God put I around

Yes, I've been accused
Wrongly abused now
But through the powers of the most high
They've got to turn me loose

Don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
So if you a bull-bucka, let me tell you that
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror

Yes, me friend, me good friend
Dem set me free again, mm
Yes, me friend
Dem turn me loose again

Don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
So if you a bull-bucka, let me tell you that
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror

(Yes, me friend) Me friend, me friend, me friend
We deh a street again
Yes, me friend, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again
...

    Oui mon ami,
    Ils m’ont encore libéré
    Oui mon ami, mon bon ami
    Me revoici dans la rue
    Les barreaux n’ont pas pu m’arrêter
    La force n’a pas pu me contrôler
    Ils ont essayé de me mater
    Mais Jah m’a délivré. Yeah!
    Oui, j’ai été faussement accusé
    Et abusé plusieurs fois
    Mais par les pouvoirs du Très-Haut
    Ils ont dû me relâcher
    Ne m’empêchez pas de traverser ce pont, maintenant
    Je dois me rendre sur le mont Sion,
    L’endroit le plus haut
    Alors si vous chevauchez les taureaux
    Laissez-moi vous dire que moi, je dompte les fantômes !
    Oui mon ami, mon bon ami
    Nous revoici dans la rue
    Oui mon ami, mon bon ami
    Ils nous ont encore libérés
    Alors ne m’empêchez pas de traverser ce pont, maintenant

    "they set me free again" " I'm a duppie conqueror ".

  16. J.... M....

    Con-ka-RA.....con equals using the power of mind to shape reality ,Ka equals spirit hence mer-KA-ba ,and RA equals sun GOD ,,,duppy conqueror means conqueror of malevolent evil spirits and with the power of the words he uses I am he is creating life force....
    I am a duppy conqueror he is creating reality with his words I suggest we all watch our sacred words that is also why bob Marley believes if you get down and talk negatively every day your singing prayers for the devil to answer

    J.... M....

    Deff power of sun god that’s why RAYGGAE has 3 colors green for the fields gold for the sun hitting the fields and red the interconnection between all men and women because we bleed red despite skin color the combination of these colors represents a way of life man in the fields in the sunlight

  17. M.... W....

    I got here from Marlon James and Kima Jones

    M.... W....

    Did you read a brief history of seven killings?... It's an amazing read

  18. M.... r....

    "The boss could not own me" , enough said. "Accused and wrongly abused" was extra credit. "Me friend they set me free again" , "got to reach mount zion" this is some powerful chit

    M.... r....

    Actually, the lyric is "The bars could not hold me" referring to Marley's time in prison.

    M.... r....

    @Nathan Allen but he makes a second statement, the "blank" cold not control me now. What is more controlling? bars or a boss? maybe he does say bars in both these statements but sounded like boss,,, The funny part is I always thought he said "boss" and this song was my anthem for going to my chit job and resisting oppression from my boss, had it playing in my headphones when I called that dude a vampire and left, and got a better job. I sure as hell felt like a duppy conquerer that daym fuk that guy. Could you tell me more about the song, What is it about then, I totally got it wrong.

  19. K.... J....

    This is my favourite Bob Marley song of all time! Love you Bob.

    I just learned the word duppy today from a co-worker. Now I've stumbled on this song after Googling the word. Can anyone tell me what he means by duppy in this song?

    J.... M....

    Devil/ demon. Its on his documentary

    J.... M....

    Justin Marston A duppy is a ghost/evil spirit

    J.... M....

    Means that if he can conquer evil spirits then no man alive can hold him down.

    Someone tell me why this song is identical to Mr. Brown?

    D.... ....

    there's also other versions of this song that sound fairly different

    D.... ....

    because mr brown is a duppy conqueror

    D.... ....

    BedStuyBro yes, partly to mimise studio recording time (musicians had to be paid, voicing was cheaper) and to continue selling records

    D.... ....

    Was wondering about that right at this moment then saw your question...And answer! Thanks for explaining..!

  65. F.... F....

    I hate u haters disliking good artist u dubstep shit music white boi don't even come and dislike the Bob Marley and the wailers u stupid dubstep fgts u honestly don't feel the vibe

    F.... F....

    @FlowZ FFA i got called a rude boy for playing the early wailers 2 weeks ago by a neighbor,ive got all my wailers tunes on analogue vinyl,so i turned it up & let them have some fat bass.funny i havnt heard no comments since,but seriously most black musicians didnt get the chance their talent deserved back in the day.but that is cause of greedy businessmen & the racist policies in the usa.when you see the protests back in the 60s your notice alot of whites joined in the marches with the blacks,its the government & the police that were racist.a true music lover realises without black culture in music there would be a sad world without blues,jazz,doo wop popcorn,soul,funk,rock steady,ska,roots reggae,rock & roll,one thing i realise is racism exists.but most racists are dumb fuckers who end up getting what they deserve.one thing ive noticed about the usa is the prison system is still racist every race is separated.but the inside rule is you have to help your own race if anyone is attacked or you get attacked.in the uk there is no staying in separate groups.if there is violence there is no join your own race gang warfare mentality.peace

    F.... F....

    +FlowZ FFA Is the dutty duppy man dweet.

    F.... F....

    Me friend chill out, I'm white I'm from poor part of Michigan and love Bob and buju, don't discriminate. All are children of God.

    perfection

  72. E.... L....

    his manager or friend used to make him practice in a grave yards with the " duppies" ghosts of the graveyard he figured if he could play there he could play anywhere bob was 18 i think

    E.... L....

    Not only that but it was always the middle of the night when they would do this.

  73. S.... ....

    love this version

  74. G.... E....

    lol ...who basically abandoned him and his mother. Kind of like Thomas Jefferson when you think about it, he slept with black women, had black children, but that didn't stop him from keeping black slaves. In fact he was known for denying his half black children. I mean America's founding fathers were deadbeat dads due to the fact that they were too ashamed to admit their true love for blacks. So they hide it with hate and abandonment. Same happened with Marley and his mother.
